Lev Bure, the 26-year-old son of "Full House" alum Candace Cameron Bure, is opening up about how a single Sunday opportunity turned into a lasting call to ministry.

In a recent interview with CBN News, Bure said his path to preaching began at Shepherd of the Hills Church in Los Angeles, where Pastor Dudley Rutherford invited several young adults to each deliver part of a Sunday sermon. Bure was just 19 at the time. "That was my first opportunity to kind of be in the pulpit with four other young communicators," he recalled. "That was kind of the start of it."

Years later, preaching has become a steady part of his life - something he approaches with both excitement and a sense of responsibility. "We all get to be part of God's mission to glorify Him and make Him known to the world," Bure said, "and I'm thankful that this is a way that God's allowed me to kind of be part of His mission."

Bure said he isn't trying to map out every step of his future, but he's open to wherever the calling leads. "If it's something that He would grace me with and continue to in the future, absolutely," he said. "It's something I would love to pursue. I love to do, and I have a heart for it."

He also described the discipline behind each message, saying preparation begins well before he steps on stage, rooted in prayer and fasting.
